This application claims the benefit of Chinese Utility Model Application No. 201720466828.5 filed on Apr. 28, 2017, the contents of which are incorporated herein by reference.
The disclosure relates to the technical field of pet products, and particularly to a two-stage molded pet toy.
At present, there are multiple kinds of pet toys on the market, which may functionally be divided into food leakage toys and teething toys. Most of the pet boys are made from one material which is either too flexible or too hard. A pet toy which is made from a hard material has a poor mouth-feel, and may not arouse an interest of a pet in biting. A pet toy which is made from a flexible material is not durable enough, may be easily broken, and may even endanger health and life of the pet if being accidentally swallowed by the pet. There are also two-stage molded toys on the market. However, under limits of a molding technology and a mold design, at present, flexible plastic is secondarily injection-molded on the basis of solid hard plastic, or the hollow rubber is assembled in the flexible plastic and the outside flexible plastic is assembled in a bonding or forced interference manner, so that a product is non-integrated.
The disclosure is intended to provide a two-stage molded pet toy.
The purpose of the disclosure is implemented by the following technical solution.
A two-stage molded pet toy may consist of a hard plastic liner which is primarily molded and a flexible material mantle which is secondarily molded and sleeves the liner, wherein the liner may be a hollow shell formed by mutually butting half shells of upper and lower parts, and openings may be formed in its two opposite ends; multiple ribs may be arranged at intervals in the half shells of the upper and lower parts of the liner along a length direction, and nicks may be formed in all of the ribs; and openings corresponding to the openings of the liner may also be formed in two ends of the mantle respectively.
Preferably, protruding surrounding edges may be arranged at the openings in the two ends of the liner respectively, and the openings in the two ends of the mantle may be closely connected with the surrounding edges respectively.
Preferably, the openings in the two ends of the mantle may be positioned at rear ends of the corresponding surrounding edges respectively, so that the openings in the two ends of the mantle may form two ports of the pet toy together with the surrounding edges at the two ends of the liner.
Preferably, the openings in the two ends of the mantle and the liner may be communicated with the nicks of the multiple ribs to form a through passage.
Preferably, the mantle may be a silicone rubber mantle or a thermoplastic elastomer plastic mantle.
Preferably, multiple teething objects may be distributed on a surface of the mantle.
Preferably, the upper and lower parts of the liner may be fixedly connected through a buckle or a stud.
The disclosure has the following beneficial effects.
The pet toy is produced from flexible and hard materials by two-stage molding, the liner is hard plastic and is hollow, and the ribs are arranged therein to realize supporting and food leakage prevention functions; the mantle is flexible plastic, and is provided with the teething objects; the pet toy is multifunctional, and has both teething and food leakage functions; in addition, the pet toy has advantages of the hard and flexible materials; the pet toy has a flexible surface and a good mouth-feel; under an action of the hard plastic of an inner layer, the flexible plastic is unlikely to be broken, and is durable; a surface layer is flexible, so that a pet is unlikely to be hurt during biting; moreover, the hollow hard plastic has a high anti-biting property, the phenomenon that food is extruded or crushed to make the inside difficult to clean is avoided, and it is ensured that the food may normally roll out; and when dry food collides with a hard wall in an inner cavity or the toy is shaken, a produced sound provides a good sensory discipline for the pet and improves interestingness.
Besides innovations about functions and structure of the product, the disclosure also makes innovations about a production process and breaks thinking limits, which is mainly reflected by the hollow inner layer. At present, a similar product on the market is molded by wrapping solid plastic with flexible plastic, and this is one of major breakthroughs of the disclosure. In terms of the structure of the product, the liner is divided into two halves, which has an advantage of convenience for molding and hollowing. A circle of protruding surrounding edge is arranged at each of the two ends, and may realize functions of supporting and plastic sealing during secondary molding and prevent the flexible plastic from flowing to a region outside the product in a molding process. In addition, reinforcing ribs are added inside to prevent the liner from being damaged by pressure during secondary molding. A multilayer support is adopted in terms of a mold, and besides protrusions at the two ends of the liner, a positioning shaft is also arranged in the middle, and this cross shaft penetrates through the center of the whole liner, and has both positioning and supporting functions.
In order to make the purpose, technical solution and advantages of the disclosure clearer, the disclosure will be further described below in detail with reference to the drawings and an embodiment. It should be understood that the specific embodiment described here is only adopted to explain the disclosure and not intended to limit the disclosure.
The embodiment provides a two-stage molded pet toy, which, as shown in
As shown in
As shown in
The mantle 2 may adopt an elastomer material such as silicone rubber and ThermoPlastic Rubber (TPR), and in terms of the molding process, hot compression molding and injection molding (hot compression molding is adopted for the silicone rubber and injection molding is adopted for the TPR) may be selected according to different materials for secondary molding. Teething objects 25 are distributed on a surface of the mantle 2, and have teething and tooth cleaning functions during biting of the pet.
A shape of the whole pet toy may be any shape.
